<< If the message is html you can try Shift + Ctrl + P to get Bearhtml to print it. >>
Usually I print HTML messages through a web browser. But when I do use BEARHTML for n-up HTML message printing, the printed output follows the printer driver setting, no problem.
Text message n-up printing, however, seems to be a lost cause, although I would expect Pegasus to defer to the OS printer driver setting. The only other Windows program I have which ignores n-up printing instructions is Quick View Plus.
"Under Tools | Options | Outgoing Mail | Message formatting, I unchecked "Disable all text styling options (never send styled mail)"
Mr. (?) Berkes is quite correct. Indeed. Who would have thought . . .
"This is a bit unfortunate however because I do want to restrict messages to plain text only, but it seems that you must have text styling enabled to have printing work correctly."
I'm with Mr. Berkes on that one, too.
If this were documented in the help file, I wouldn't be grumbling as much. Perhaps whoever drafts the help file could consider an edit, since some of us out here in the provinces do look there before posting.
> I want to move to a different computer and continue using pegasus there. How do I get all my mails and settings over to that one?
1. Use Help | About Pegasus Mail | Info and note all the directories. This is the directory structure you want to backup.
2. Use the Windows backup program to backup the entire structure. In the multiuser made this means you'll have to backup the top level structure to get all the user directories. You can simply ZIP these directories to a CDROM and restore on the other end as well.
3. Restore this to the new computer.
Note:
A. If you are using a CDROM for backup make sure that the files did not get marked read only. Use Explorer and check the file properties.
B. If you changed drive letters then run pconfig.exe and change the drive letter of the home and new mail directory to match the new location. You also should check the Mailbox: line in the *.PND files and make sure it's blank.
C. If you want to upgrade in the process do it after you transfer the files and install it over the old installation using exactly the same directory structure and options.
What about the attached (compressed) crash dump (something like
2009-09-20#13-53-57.cab)? That's the most important part: I checked the
beta-reports account and you didn't send it, apparently? It would be
really helpful and is for now the only way to a possible solution.

Thanks for the instructions.
Log file is edited and cleaned; I finally found the cab; I deleted the password in the dmp and stored it in a new zip-file... Yet I am not sure if the dump file was created due the error ´too frequently login´ or due the main problem of disrupted network connection. The ´too many logins´ problem actually was on my side; gmx doesn´t accept repeated logins witin very few

Sounds like lots of work you're going through, but good to hear you could fix at least something. Now about the crash dump file: Editing it isn't a good idea as it isn't a simple text file: The one you provided is unfortunately unreadable for the debugger now (using a hex editor might allow you to modify it, but you'd need to know exactly what you're doing for trying this). Instead of posting it here as an attachment you should rather send them directly to my email address. But you're maybe right with your assumption above that it might not really help with your primary issue ...
I was using Pmail in the beginning of 90's under DOS. At that time it was normal to write messages in "latinitsa" (transcription of Russian words by letters of the English alphabet)...
Now I'm using Thunderbird, but from time to time I try to switch back to Pmail (for different reasons: for great number of features in Pmail and because I simply like the program), but every time I need to give up :-( Yes, you are right,- because of poor support for cyrillic/Russian language. And ONLY because of that!

Part of the problem is that Pegasus Mail isn't a native Unicode application (i.e. it's user interface) and would need a major redesign to support it properly. It might be possible to at least get proper message formatting and display, though, but one of the difficulties is the lack of test messages as it's usually rather difficult to type Russian characters on a non-Russian keyboard. I'd like to look into this but I can't promise anything!

Somehow now that both PM 4.41 and 4.51 are on this computer, even 4.41 shows that strange behavior.
I looked for this on the community web site, but didn't find it, sorry.
Thanks a lot,

This is caused by keeping WSOCK32.DLL always loaded (cf. Tools | Options | Advanced settings) which is required for preventing Pegasus Mail from crashing while using BearHtml as its HTML renderer if you want to be able to download remote images. As it's mainly a cosmetic issue this hasn't very high priority on David Harris' to-do-list, I guess ...
I have downloaded PMRestArch from the lexacorp site and will give this a try soon. Unfortunately, there is a long list of home repairs for the weekend and I'm only 1/2 way through. I'll report back with my success or failure.
Does the 'limited account' user have read/write permissions to the directory where the mail is stored? Also sounds like the user does not have read rights.
Could be way off base, but it is something to check out.
Pagasus kept telling me it was still in version 4.41, although the update was reported as being succesful.
Looks like one or more of the files did not get updated. My first thought is that the winpm-32.dat was not updated and the installer was not notified by the OS that the write to the file failed. Try the install as the system admin or verify all files are closed during the update.

This is for GMail, the Hotmail is almost the same as (a) and (b) but change the servers to pop3.live.com and smtp.live.com. For Hotmail you need to turn off the certificate authentication since the Hotmail certificate is bad.
(a) -POP3-
Server host name: pop.gmail.com User name: <your_user_name>@gmail.com Password: <your_password> Server TCP/IP port: 995 SSL/TLS: via direct SSL connect Enable server certificate fingerprint tracking: checked
(b) -SMTP STARTTLS -
Server host name: smtp.gmail.com Server TCP/IP port: 587 SSL/TLS: via STARTTLS Enable server certificate fingerprint tracking: checked SMTP Authentication: Login to the SMTP server using POP3 username/password (the GMAIL-POP3-definition has been chosen)
(c) - SMTP via SSL -
Server host name: smtp.gmail.com Server TCP/IP port: 465 SSL/TLS: via direct ssl connection Enable server certificate fingerprint tracking: unchecked SMTP Authentication: Login to the SMTP server using POP3 username/password (the GMAIL-POP3-definition has been chosen)
(d) - IMAP4 via SSL -
Server host name: imap.gmail.com User name: <your_user_name>@gmail.com Password: <your_password> Server TCP/IP port: 993 SSL/TLS: via direct SSL connect
[quote user="irongate"]Hi - I've just downloaded Pegasus and can't seem to find any instructions for downloading mail folders and contacts from Outlook Express. Can anyone help please [/quote]
Today I had a one in a million chance.Because all my account passwords of MS Outlook were lost.And next software-,used this chance.Moreover it made this action for free and I saw how utility help to retrieve current user password Outlook and restore access to your email account.
I have had this persistent problem for some time now. I have checked all over these forums, and can't seem to find anyone else who has this issue.
Whenever I try to reply to a message that comes from Yahoo, no matter what I change my overall settings or reply settings to, I can't seem to get Pegasus to include the text of the original message in my reply. It will include the headers and other information, but the message part is always blank/missing.
Has anyone else experienced this or have a solution?
[/quote]
You may try to select the message text (Ctrl + A) and use the "reply to selected portion" option which shows up after doing so.
[quote user="Tracy"]Just started using Pegasus and are finding PDF files are corrupted when it reaches the recipient....anyone else seen this?[/quote]
I remember once having problems with this as Pegasus Mail treated some PDFs as text files and corrupted their formatting by interpreting as line breaks which actually were some kind of binary data. The easiest workaround would be to manually select the encoding type at the bottom of the attachments tab after attaching the file: Basic MIME should do it. I believe there's also a way to configure Pegasus Mail to do this automatically but I can't figure it out right now.
To ensure this your issue can you open such a (supposedly corrupted) message in raw view and look for the header line starting with Content-transfer-encoding: preceding the attachment section to see whether it uses BASE64. The whole header section of a PDF attachment should look similar to this one:
If it already does then there's probably nothing you can do and the above workaround doesn't fit, the problem might be located at the recipient's site. Can you open these PDFs ok on your machine?
